Is this the funniest photo in baseball history?

If a picture tells a thousand words, as the old cliche goes, then this amazing sports shot is good for at least a million.

Seriously, every single face here tells a story. Stories of dreams. Stories of fears. Stories of courage under fire, and panic under duress. In short, the stories of men and women drilled down to their true essences, finding out who they really are in the split second it takes for a rock-hard baseball to come hurtling from the heavens down into their once-tranquil section of Fenway Park.

There are plenty of great foul ball shots out there, but this may just be best. In fact, it may well be the funniest baseball pic we've ever seen. It was shot by Jim Davis of The Boston Globe during a Red Sox-Orioles game in Boston last week. A moderate amount of Internet sleuthing yielded no results as to who came up with baseball in question, but we'll keep looking and let you know if anything turns up.

Meanwhile, tell us whose action face you like best in the comments.
